Dambai

Dambai lies on the eastern bank of the Oti, a river that flows south towards the Volta. Woodland and cultivated ground surround the river, where farming and fishing have long provided food for local communities. The wider Krachi country is home to Guan-speaking peoples whose oral traditions recall migrations from Larteh and Prang. Their chiefs and clans maintained distinct local identities within a region joined by river crossings and neighbouring settlements.
